Throughout her studies, Morategi has worked keenly on increasing and improving youth participation in policy-making - particularly in climate change policy.

Morategi looks forward to pursuing an MPhil in Development Studies at Oxford and thereafter, return to South Africa to undertake a career in research and in the public sector.
